A boat is a watercraft of modest size designed to float or plane on water, and provide lift over it. Usually this water will be inland (lakes) or in protected coastal areas. However, boats such as the whaleboat were designed to be operated from a ship in an offshore environment. In naval terms, a boat is something small enough to be carried aboard another vessel (a ship). Some boats too large for the naval definition include the Great Lakes freighter, riverboat, narrowboat and ferryboat.

What is the reason that navigation lights on the bow of boats is red on left and green on right?
Q. If you want to tell me where the terms "port' and 'starboard' in boats came from , i'll be amazed/ Well, after several good answers, nobody has addressed my main question. Let's go back to the very day that the color of the lights was determined. Why was red and green selected? why did the red get put on the left side. You are all answering the question based on how to use the lights, and not why the colors went where they did. So again, why red on left and green on right? Tony C got the reason for the port and starboard.

A boat is a watercraft, usually smaller than most ships. Some boats are commonly carried by a ship or on land using trailers.
